FIELD OF VIEW
by ~ '
John.Edgar Hoover, Director
Federal Bureau of Investigation
United States Department of Justice
Almost every citizen's impression of the
Federal Bureau of Investigation varies according to his.
knowledge, or lack of knowledge, of this agency of the Federal
government. The Jack of knowledge, is often a. source of con«^
cern. The Concern stems from the fact that, in many instances,
distorted and often wholly false impressions float across the
.consciousness, and, if the field of view is not already broadened
by factual knowledge, such impressions color the individual, attitude.
Perhaps the most common misconceptions Relative
to the FBI have to do with its size, its jurisdiction, and the wholly
erroneous impression thai it issues "clearances. "

The FBI issues no clearances. The misunderstanding
with regard to this point unquestionably stems from the fact that, the
FBI, in accordance with presidential directives, instructions from
the Attorney General, and various Federal laws; is charged with
conducting; specific types- of investigations- concerning certain
applicants* appointees and employees of agencies of the Executive,
Branch of the Government. The purpose of these inquiries is to
determine facts about an individual on which, appropriate officials; of
the interested agency can make a sound judgment as to whether or not
that person warrants the trust placed in him as 1 a public servant. All
facts ascertained by the FBI in connection with such inquiries,
Whether good or bad, are turned over to appropriate officials in the
interested agency. The FBJ gives no ''clearance.." It does not express
an opinion regarding the suitability of persons for Government employ-
ment, Hor does it make recommendations with respect to hiring, firing ,
or retaining employees of other Federal agencies. The officials of such
agencies are wholly responsible lor decisions made.
What, about the FBI's jurisdiction?
We. conduct investigations in over 165 different
elasslf ications. These encompass both, general investigations and
-2-
^
*
domestic intelligence operations. Such jurisdiction is derived
from Congressional enactments, Executive Orders, and rulings of "
the. Attorney General* It is strictly limited, yet seemingly great
numbers of people are unaware of this fact. Indeed, we recdlve
thousands of requests to investigate matters which are not within
our jurisdicti&ij Jh instance after instance, we have difficulty in - .
convincing those making the': requests v that we can take no action in
, areas in which we, do riot have such jurisdiction and that We can act
only in instaittces in which .FBI jurisdiction is specific and defined.,
The FBI is a fact-^therihg arid fact-reporting agency— an investigative
agency, as the name indicatesi And* as I indicated earlier} tit neither
evaluates the results- of its investigations nor makes prosecutive
recommendations.
Some> citizens, of course, are unaware that the FBI, is
.the investigative arm of qnly one sectiqn of the Executive Branch of
96verriment-.-?the United States Department of Justice^-and that respon-
sibility relative to income tax violations , narcotics; guarding the
President, and a host of other matters, rests with agencies other than
the FBI* _
The FBJVs role is well known with regard to* .breaches
oflaw which are highly publicized, such as kidnapirigs or violations
- 3 -
<h
of the Federal bank, robbery statute— and here I might add that in
the .fiscal year 1902 there were 893 robberies^ 303 burglaries 2nd
1^3 larcenies of banks* credit unions, and sayings and loan assocla-
tions~~but lew are. aWareofcthe many other responsibilities devolving
upon our organization. For example, &eFI^is chatfpdwl&the
duty of investigating alleged violations of the rights and privileges,
guaranteed to an individual by the Constitution of the United States .
Some idea of the size of our investigative responsibilities
under the civil rights statutes, may be< gained ftfom the fact that 2, 08$
alleged violatitons 1 of civil rights were reported to the FP? during, the
fiscal year .1962 as; compared to 1> 813 for the preceding y^ar* . -
Recent new legislation,, including new laws bolstering
the Government's' drive on. organized crime,; nas, further extended FBI
jurisdiction and added to the mountiug workload.
That the yearly work load is substantial may be judged
from the feet that convictioiisiin .FBI cases totaled $2, 635 in the 1962
fiscal year, and fines, savings and. recoveries rose to an all-time
Mgh of $174, 5§I, 341--&sum wblch, represents a return: of $1. 37, for.
. every dollar appropriated for the FBI in the year ending June 30, 1962.
During the same period, 11 v 103 fugitives were located;

Tact? such, as the preceding ones tend to make some,
people think 61 the Federal Bureau of Investigation as an agency "wjiich "
awst be massive in size. The contrary is true* As of the end 6f the*
fiscal year 196fc, the total complement of FBI employees *was .5, 967
Special Agents and 8, 057 clerical employees,. This group of slightly
more than fourteen thousand men and vrtunen man fifty-fiye field offices
in the United States and Puerto Rico, and staff FBI Headquarters in

than 23,000 fingerprint cards for processing each working day.
Similarly* the FBI Laboratory, in the course: of tee fiscal yoar 1962,
received 191, 253 specimens of evidence requiring 231, 486 scientific
examinations* In the same period, the FBI, upon request, participated
in 3, 666 local and regional police training schools, attended by 101*865

This, v&ry matte*! of cppperatien sometimes leads to

has now advised me by letter as follows :
,r We would be very happy to have an article
prepared by Mr. Hoover in the News Record * In
fact, after thinking about this for several days,
I have decided to make this a special issue which
would have three or four pages devoted to
Communism on both the international and domestic
levels. I understand that the University of
Cincinnati has an excellent Russian Studies
Program and, this, plus help from other depart-
ments on campus,, would provide an interesting
as well as informative issue.
"Mr. Hoover's article, if he is going to
write it exclusively for the News Record , would
be used as the lead article for the issue. On
the other hand, if the article is not written
especially for the News Record , we would have to
know the subject in order to incorporate it into
the proper place. Naturally, the former would be
preferable to us.

covered as much as possible including how, when, where it
operates, its goals, its victims, its successes, its failures,

absence of criticism if published because there are all kinds of
students on the campus from those of the ultra-right to those
of the ultra-left, and he speculates that somebody will have
something to say. be

Even so, it is my experience that the University of
Cincinnati is a relatively reliable and conservative group
compared with many other universities. Our relationship with
the top officials is excellent.
If the Bureau can see its way clear to prepare an
article relatin g to Communism, this would fit in with the current
plans of | ] . We are hopeful that any such article would
make mention of the Director's new book which will be released

I received the information you sent me through the Cin-
cinnati office.
I do not know if Mr. Mason of the Cincinnati office in-
formed you of our intentions but we plan to publish a four or
five page spread on communism some time in late November or
early December. This special will deal with every facet of
communism we feel we have the knowledge and ability to cover—
'historically, idealological, internationally, and domestic.
Communism to me has long been a source of confusion and
with this spread we hope to clarify and classify these points
of confusion which has been a stumbling block to studeSbs wh<£?
are not associated with communism courses, and study, o -^

Although the spread is still in the early planning stages
I would, like to thank you and Mr. Mason for the assispbce you
have given me. Mr. Mason has given me a library of printed io

In response to your request of April 28th, I am enclosing
copies of the most recent issue of our FBI Law Enforcement Bulletin
and Uniform Crime Reports bulletin. Our supply of prior issues of the
latter has been exhausted. Arrangements have been made so that you
will receive these two publications as they are released in the future.,
Our records will be adjusted in August of this year if you will send us
at that time the exact address to whiclv'our material should be sent you.
There is no charge for literature the FBI is privileged to disseminate.
We do not have a list of our publications which we can
furnish you,, but if you will advise us of any specific topics in the field
of law enforcement in which you have a special interest, available
material on these subjects will be sent to you.

As if you didn't have your hands sufficiently full right now, we need
some help — and "we 11 are a group of relatively responsible businessmen
in Cincinnati. Here is our problem — hopefully you might give us some
advice — possibly you might even have a pamphlet already in print which
your department could distribute to us.
a
As you know, the University of Cincinnati » a 20,000 student institution
is closed I A group of 35 militants (several non-students) sat on the
floor in the Administration Building and eventually caused the University
Senate to express concern that the entire campus was in danger.
Whether this is the real reason or not is of little concern at this
point — hindsight is usually 20-20! What- concerns us most right now is
the future.
Obviously if there is to be a future in this University of Cincinnati,
there needs to be some return to responsibility for the 60 to 85% of the
campus which is presently "non-aligned". This fluid mass which is
actually a majority on most campuses is quite upset by the militants and
extremists, but they don't do anything.
At this point I feel that these people would no longer remain silent. if
there was some activity with a constructive purpose, with which they
could ally themselves. If there were some responsible voice on campus.
Tie these two things together, and it looks like there might be a
possibility of a "University of Cincinnati Student Herald" similar to
the Badger Student Herald at the University of Wisconsin. I presume
that that paper is trying to be an active voice.
Secondly, industry here iLri Cincinnati (at least the industry leaders with
whom we are talking) is chomping at the bit to support a move to,
responsibility — they're chomping at*the bit to help support some , decent /„ ^y
and responsible campus leadership. REC-llQf <^X j ^ l/sT^T* -»/ U 5
This is the framework q$E, campus--lilcewfse there are quite a few Sigma
Chi undergraduates who I think wouid lead, if given some guidelines and
some advice on $hat is working elsewhere.

Dear Sir:
I am presently engaged in preliminary research in the area of
the psychology of olfaction and am at quite a loss due to the lack
of previous work in this area.
Without being unnecessarily specific and asking an overly-loaded
question, I should like to know if the Bureau's Laboratories main-
tain a section for the analyses and characterisations of odors and,
furthermore, I should like to know if any such data would be avail-
able to me in my research*
Your help would be most gratefully appreciated*

- This pas,t wihter\while attending school I worked part

that this is. not exactly what I want to do for the rest of my lfcfe.
The past month or so I have been thinking of law enforcement and the
Federal Bureau of Investigation in particular.
I have been reading a little about the Bureau, but would
like additional information regarding the requirements, for becoming
an agent. It wopd be ^reatLy appreciatedif you could send me any
information that would be helpful to a future applicant of the Federal
Bureau of Investigation. One question that I- would' like answered is
if I co-op while going to school will the time I work while co-oping
count, in the years I need for work experience before you consider
an applicant.

/ On 9/28/71 SAC paid courtesy call on:
jDr. BENNIS, newly appointed President of the University
J of Cincinnati^ Matters of general interest* were dis- ?
cussed With Dr # BENNIS, including Bureau ^s Responsibilities
in regard td* subversive organizations and individuals^
and extremist groups and activities; pur responsibilities
in coxinettion with applicant matters, and necessity "for
carrying put various, phases of our responsibilities at
colleges ;and other educational establishments* alsd dis-
cussed was the value, of ciosfe and cooperative relation-
ships between our organization, the Cincinnati 40ff ice,
and heads of educational institutions, and the necessity
that such officials be available from time to time for
contact on short notice where matters involve a time ,
element or other urgency •
Br* BENNIS had, apparently done his homework
-well, as he had a fair picture of developments during
recent years at the University involving dfemon^rations
and other activities of interest to the Bifrfeau^

While Dr. BENNIS was not critical \q£ his
i predecessor, Dr, WALTER LANGSAM, he did 'state frankly
1 that he is an. entirely different, personality; believes//
in getting out frequently among the stiidfnts <arid / ^
definitely seeking *to communicate witH tlaem chjl a persbh^L
basis, and being frequently seen around the campus by
i the students ♦ His comments indicated that he will probably
I be more amenable to personal "give and take" discussions
I with the various student elements than was his predecessor*
His comments indicated that he will probably allow
students and student groups to take a larger part in

In regard to "communicating" with the
students, he commented that he, recently visited a
student gathering place near the campus, a restaurant,
for an hour or so, just to converse with the students' on a
social and relaxed basis, which he indicated Dr. LANGSAM
would probably not have done nor approved.
Dr. BENNIS was very cordial arid -relaxed in
his discussion with SAC. .He . commented two or three times
that he had always had the highest regard for FBI Agents
and the Bureau, and had never met an Agent who did not
appear to be efficient, and, a gentleman. He stated he
welcomed and appreciated SAC's visit, indicated that he
would be available at any time, and should any information
'come to our attention which we felt might benefit the
university through him, he would like very much to be
contacted.
Further contact will be undertaken with
Dr. BENNIS from time to time, with considered evaluation
made of his attitude and cooperativeness as a contact. The
Bureau will be kept advised of any developments of interest
in this regard.

Dear Mr. Kelley:
The officers and Board of Directors of the University of Cin cinnati
Alumni Association have invested me with a most welcome responsibintyr
to invite you as the principal speaker for our Alumni Day Dinner to be held
in Cincinnati in March, 1974.
This is a time jui America where the law enforcement and the legal
profession must find ways of working together. For that reason you seemed
to^be the most appropriate speaker we could find'for our Dinner.
I realize that you receive many invitations to speak and, in light of
your responsibilities,, can only accept a few. For that reason, it seemed
more than a courtesy to outline some of the facts that may help you make
a decision on this matter.

Our Annual Alumni Dinner is an important and well attended event.
In the past few years, Archibald Cox, Justice Goldberg, and former Secre-
tary of State Dean Rusk have spoken at the affair. The audience is comr
posed of prominent judges and lawyers from Ohio and the neighboring states
of Indiana and Kentucky and is one of quantity as well as quality — it usually
totals over 500. The speech itself need not be overly scholastic and runs
about 20 minutes •

Perhaps of more immediate importance than historical detail is
the fact that you will find that our alumni will be most enthusiastic to
hear you. Further, I am certain that the media will give your talk the
fullest and widest publicity if you deem that desirable.
We have not set a specific date in March in order that you might
have flexibility in this matter. The Saturday evening of the 2nd, the
9th, or the 30th would be commensurate with our needs. Of course, we
will provide all transportation and other costs as well as an honorarium
if you deem that appropriate. We would be delighted if Mrs. Kelley
could attend.
As I am sure you can appreciate, matters such as this must be
made final well in advance. In that connection, I will call your office
on October 3, 1973, in order to determine whether you will be able to
accept our invitation. Should you need more information of any kind,
please call me at Area Code 513-475,-2631.
I know that the evening will be a pleasant one for you and that
your affirmative response will make us all anticipate the finest Alumni
Dinner in our long history.
With highest regard and every good wish, I am,
Respectfully yours,

HISTORICAL NOTE ON THE UNIVERSITY
OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW
(CINCINNATI LAW SCHOOL)
The genesis of the University of Cincinnati College of Law is
the Cincinnati Law School, which began training law students in
1833. l Its service to legal education has been substantially con-
tinuous. 2 This longevity ranks the Law School as the fourth oldest
in the United States. 3
The founders of the Cincinnati Law School were Timothy
Walker, Edward King, and }udge John C. Wright of the Ohio
Supreme Court. Walker had studied law at Harvard and King at
Litchfield. This experience convinced them that a student could
develop his potential in a law school better than through reading
in a law office. In 1833, the faculty consisted of Walker, who was
Dean, Judge Wright and Joseph S. Bennam. 4 There were seventeen
students in the first class. 5 The first sessions were held on the north
side of Third Street east' of Main Street. The course could be com-
pleted in one term. The announcement of the Cincinnati Law School,
dated May 29, 1833, describes the method of instruction as follows:
_"The course.of instruction will embrace lectures on General
and local law; practice in Moot Courts organized on the mode of
the several Courts in Ohio, and frequent examinations upon the
books read. Also, such^new-and difficult-questions as occur on
the Circuits in different parts of the State, will be submitted to
the students for examination."
This was a strong educational program for its day.
The Cincinnati Law School lacked authority to confer degrees.
Another educational institution in Cincinnati, the Cincinnati College,
had been chartered by the Ohio General Assembly in 1819 and was
authorized to confer degrees but it did not have a department of
law. In 1835 The Cincinnati Law School .became a department of
the Cincinnati College, which,, thereafter conferred degrees on its
289
290 THE LAW IN SOUTHWESTERN OHIO
-graduates^ including J hose gradimte^injfi33 and 1834. The Cin-
cinnati College building was located on the easT~side^6f~Walnur"
Street between Fourth and Fifth Streets. The faculty of the Cin-
cinnati Law School became the faculty of the Law School of the
Cincinnati College and the curriculum remained the same.
The Cincinnati College's first educational program was begun
in 1819 in the arts and sciences. In the same year that the 'Cincinnati
Law School joined the Cincinnati College, 1835, a Medical Depart-
ment was organized in the College by Dr. Daniel Drake. These
academic units made an important contribution to higher education
in the United States. 6 However, due to declining fortune, destruction
of the Colleges building by fire, and the competition of the Wood-
ward College and the Medical College of Ohio, the arts and sciences
and medical programs were discontinued. Thus, the Cincinnati
Law School is the only surviving academic unit of the Cincinnati
College.
During the 1800s, the faculty of the Law School practiced law.
Accordingly, the instruction was given principally in the evening.
However, toward the turn of the century, a trend to afternoon classes
developed. By the early 1900s, the classes were scheduled largely
in the morning hours. No course of previous study was required for
admission, but students were advised to read prescribed text books
on law prior to enrollment, and some law students had read law in a
law office. A substantial percentage of the law students had obtained
a liberal arts degree.
The Law School assumed an "in loco parentis" relation to law
students. The rules of conduct, published in the bulletin for academic
year 1837-38, forbade students from dueling. Also, students were
permitted to enter a tavern only if accompanied by one of their
professors. Corporal punishment "as a means to excitement to
study" was prohibited, but the rules of conduct provided that "in
cases of continued wilful disobedience . . _. the instructor . . . may at
his discretion use the rod. ..." A letter from an irate parent com-
plained that the infliction of corporal punishment on his son for
absence from classes was excessive.
For thirty years, the law degree was conferred on students com-
pleting one term of six months' duration. In the academic year
1863-64 the requirement for graduation was increased to two terms
of six months with a six months' vacation between terms. 7 However,
if a student, on the basis of reading in a law office, could pass an

examination covering the subjects in the first term, he was given
advanced standing.
Timothy Walker is duly credited with firmly establishing the
Law School. He was devoted to the institution and was highly
creative. In 1837, he published his "Introduction to American Law*'
It ran through eleven editions, the last in 1905, and is regarded as the
"American Blackstone." 8 Also, in 1843, he founded "The Western
Law Journal* and edited it for many years. The journal reported
significant judicial decisions and published articles by authorities
on law. It combined the functions of the modern law reporter and
law review. Walker was a fine teacher and inspired his students
with zeal for the Profession of the Law.
In 1845, the Cincinnati College's building was destroyed, by iire.
A new" building was constructed on the same site. The Young Men's
Mercantile Association, which had organized a library in 1822, con-
tributed $10,000 to the construction of the new building. In exchange
the College gave a perpetual lease to the Association of space for
its library. In 1902, the College made a perpetual lease of the site
of the building on Walnut Street for a perpetual ground rent of
$10,562 per annum and $50,000 to be used in the construction of the
new home of the Law School at Ninth Street near Race Street The
purchaser of the interest constructed a new building at the Walnut
Street site in which the Mercantile Library is still housed.

-Theonajor part of Jhe Lfuhds for construction of the new home
of the College was raised through the sale~bf b6nds\ 9 ~TDfTthe~same~
year that the Ohio General Assembly empowered the College to
issue the bonds, at also demonstrated its regard for the quality of the
College's educational program by authorizing the Supreme Court
of Ohio to admit graduates of the Law School to the Bar of Ohio
upon award of their diploma. In 1869, the College building again
burned, and, in 1870, it was reconstructed.
The deanship of Maskell E. Curwen spanned the years' 1850-68. 10
Curwen was the author oV'Curwen on Torts' and edited the Revised
Statutes of Ohio, continuing the work begun by Salmon E. Chase.
Outstanding faculty members* during this period included Judge
Bellamy Storer, who served nineteen years, and Judge George
Hoadly, who served twenty-three years. JudgeHoadly was Gover-
nor of Ohio and was an outstanding corporation lawyer. >
Rufus King was Dean of the Law School from 1875 until 1880. 11
William Howard Taf t, who studied under Dean King, described him
as "a man of the highest type, a gentleman bred in the bone, a hard
headed, hard hitting lawyer, deeply trained in the common law . . .
He . . . devoted his life long to the cause of education in all its
Cincinnati College— Walnut Street
UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW 293
branches. No student could sit under him and not be inspired to
higher things/' 12 During Dean King's administration, the curriculum
was broadened substantially and the number of class sessions was
doubled. 13 Other members of the faculty were Judge Hoadly,
Professor Henry A. Morrill, who served on the faculty for forty years,
and Major General Manning F. Force, the author of a textbook
entitled ''Principles of the Criminal Law!' Dean King taught Con-
stitutional Law. In his will, he endowed the Rufus King Professorship
of Constitutional Law, which continues today.
In 1878, an alumni association of the Law School was organized.
Charles D. Drake was the first President. 14
The quality of the educational program was improved greatly
during the administration of Dean Jacob D. Cox from 1880 to 1897.
In 1896, the course of study was increased to three academic years
of eight months each, with a four month vacation between terms. 15
This was a giant step forward. In 1971 it continues the same. The
faculty was enlarged by the addition of George R. Sage, Channing
Richards and Hiram D. Peck. The number of graduates, during
Coxs administration, averaged seventy-five per year. This is
the strongest period of the Law School's competitive era in legal
education.
Cox achieved a variety of accomplishments. He was a distin-
guished General in the Civil War and an outstanding military historian
and scientist. He wasGovernor of Ohio, served brief ly as Secretary
of the Interior under Grant -^resigning because of differences over
the civil service — and was then elected to Congress.
Cox also served as President of the University of Cincinnati from
1885 to 1889. In 1886, Cox proposed the consolidation of all the
educational institutions in the City. 16 A union of several of the
medical institutions was achieved. In 1892,. the .Ohio- General As-
sembly amended the statute of 1819, which had chartered the Cin-
cinnati College, to provide that all powers conferred by the statute
on the Board of Trustees of the Cincinnati College should thereafter
be exercised by the Board of Trustees of the University of Cincinnati. 17
The Trustees of the Cincinnati College objected; strenuously to this
statute. In Ohio v. Neff, the; Ohio Supreme Court held, that the
statute violated the protection of private property assured by the
Ohio Constitution and was void. 18
The litigation between the University and the Cincinnati College
had disrupted negotiations for a merger of the two schools. Accord-

ingly,-in^l896,«the„Uniyersity_of Cincinnati established a Law
Department- Moving spirits in this developmenTwere Alfred^Br
Benedict and William Howard Taft. Benedict was a graduate of the
University and of the Cincinnati Law School and was then serving on
the Board of Directors of the University. The Law Department was
begun with an illustrious faculty of six members. William Howard
Taft, then a Federal Circuit Judge, was made Dean. The other
members were Judson Harmon, who had served as Attorney-General
of the United States and was to serve as Governor of Ohio; Lawrence
Maxwell, who had served as Solicitor-General of the United States;
Rufus B. Smith, then Judge of the Superior Court and who was to
serve as Chairman of the Board of Directors of U.C; Dr. Gustavus
H. Wald, the noted authority on contracts, and J. Doddridge Brannan.
Professor Langdell of Harvard had developed the "case" system
of law study to replace the textbook system. It was recognized by
the faculty of the new Law Department that the "case" method
created a realistic atmosphere for study of the litigative process and
laid an effective base for dissection and analysis of legal doctrine.
Hence, the faculty decided to adopt the "case" method. Wald and
Brannan had studied under Langdell and were familiar with the
system. The classes of the new Law Department were conducted
in rooms on the north side of Fourth Street between Vine and Walnut.
The law course, like that of the Cincinnati Law School, required
three academic years for completion.
The competition between the two Law Schools paved the way
to an early union. In 1897, the Cincinnati College and the University
of Cincinnati entered into a contract for a merger of at least ten years.
The united schools were to be called the Cincinnati Law School. The
College, which had facilities, was to furnish these and the income
from its endowment. The University was to contribute $1,000
annually. The tuition paid by students also was to be used exclusively
in the legal education program. The reorganization was executed
by Dean Taft. The members of the faculty of the UC Law depart-
ment were retained. From the Cincinnati Law School faculty Pro-
fessor H.A. Morrill and Judge John R. Sayler were appointed but
Dean Cox, while favoring the merger, declined to serve. The follow-
ing year, four additional members were appointed: Albert B.
Benedict, Harlan Cleveland, Frank B. James and Charles M.
Hepburn. The combined group, constituted an outstanding faculty.
In 1900, the Association of American Law Schools was organized,
UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW 295
with the purpose of establishing standards of legal education appro-
priate to the responsibilities of members of the bar in serving society.
The Cincinnati Law School participated in the formation of the
Association and was a charter member.
Taft was appointed Governor of the Philippines in 1900 and he
was succeeded as Dean by Professor Gustavus H. Wald. Dean Wald
was the author of "V/ald's Pollock on Contracts y " which ran through
three editions. 19 In 1902, after a brief term as Dean, he died. In his
memory, members of his family, Mrs. Betty Wald and Richard H,
Wald, endowed the Gustavus H. Wald Professorship of the Law of
Contracts, which continues today.
William P. Rogers, who had served as dean of the University of
Indiana Law School, was appointed Dean in 1902 and served until
1916. 20 The Cincinnati Law School had been the only law school
in, Ohio until 1885. However, there were now a number of law
schools in Ohio and adjoining states. This decreased enrollment.
Nevertheless, under Rogers, the faculty raised the standard of ad-
mission from a high school education to one year of college. 21
During this period, approximately one-third of the students in the
Law School obtained college degrees prior to beginning law study.
Also, in this period the curriculum was broadened significantly, and
greater emphasis was placed on the use of full time faculty members.
On October 17, 1903, the new home of the Cincinnati Law
School at 21 West Ninth Street was dedicated. An impressive pro-
gram was presented. 22 Dean Rogers' address includes a statement
which discloses his progressive philosophy of legal education:
"Law, like civilization, is a growth. ... In this evolution of the
law, in this forward march with civilization, the trained lawyers
must lead the column. They must guard the community's in-
terests and-Iook well to her laws, Theproper laws of a com-
munity may there exist not only long before they are decreed
but often in contradiction to those which are declared. When the
letter of the law is dead, when its precepts are disregarded and
its commands unenforced, it is no longer law in that community
though no repeal has been enacted, nor decision rendered de-
claring it void."
His words are appropriate for the foreseeable future. The
principal address was given by Sir Frederick Pollock, the eminent
English jurist, on the virtues of the common law.
296 THE LAW IN SOUTHWESTERN OHIO
In 1907, the Cincinnati Law School, upon a unanimous vote
of the students, adopted the honor system of taking examinations. 23 "
On his examination book the student was required to certify that
he had not given or received aid in the examination. Also, he was
under a duty to report any observed violation by other students.
This honor system continues in the Law School today.
On June 5, 1908, the Cincinnati Law School celebrated its
seventy-fifth anniversary. 24 The major addresses were by Dean
James Barr Ames of the Harvard Law School and Dean George W.
Kirchwey of the Columbia School of Law. Dean Ames, empha-
sized that "The training of students must always be the chief object
of the law school, but this work should be supplemented by solid
contributions of their professors to the improvement of law." Dean
Kirchwey *s address made the point that "our legal education is wholly
insufficient to answer the high purposes to which the bar of this
country is called." He recommended that a college degree should
be a prerequisite to law study, observing that:
"Our judges are, in the nature of our system, practically the
leaders in the social revolution which is upon us, and if it is to
be wisely guided, it should be jn the hands of men who know the
forces with which they are dealing."
The agreement for merger which the University of Cincinnati
and the Cincinnati College made in 1897 only bound the Cincinnati
College for ten years. In 1911, the Cincinnati College severed its
connection with the University. 25 It was thought by some trustees
of the College that the University was exercising disproportionate
control over the College. __ __
In 1916, Dean Rogers retired and was succeeded by Professor
Alfred B. Benedict. Dean Benedict had been a moving force behind
the initial merger of the Law Department of the University and the
Cincinnati College. His interest in unification of the law schools
continued. Benedict negotiated with Rufus B. Smith, then Chairman
of the Board of Directors of the University, regarding potential terms
of a merger. The late Francis H. Baldwin had recently bequeathed
*$700,000 to the University. Smith assured Benedict that it was
possible for the University to contribute $13,000 annually to the
support of the Law School 26 This sum substantially matched the
income from the endowment of the Cincinnati College.
In 1918, the final union of the Law School of the Cincinnati

College (Cincinnati Law School) and the University of Cincinnati
was.achieved. 27 The agreement provided that the University would
maintain the Cincinnati Law School "as a school of instruction in
law in the most" approved manner" and "of as high grade or Higher
than . . . now maintained." The course of instruction was to be at
least three years. At least three of the faculty were required to be
full time teachers. The trusts granted to the College by the wills
of Rufus King, Mary Dexter and John R. Sayler, and* the gifts* of
Betty Wald, Richard H. Wald and of George* WoodXogan, were to
be performed by the University. All income from the endowment
and property of the College and all tuition paid by students* was to
be applied exclusively to maintenance of the Law School. In ad-
dition, the University was to contribute $13,000 annually. Today,

the President and the Board of Directors of the University serve in
thedual capacifyof President arid Trustees of the Cincinnati Colleger
Also, the Dean of the UC College of Law serves as one of the Trustees
of the Cincinnati College.
Dean Rogers, in his final report, stated that it was advisable for
the Cincinnati Law School to present all legal education offered in
the vicinity. He suggested that the quality of night legal education
could be raised substantially by extending the program of study to
four years, the last of which should be taken in the day law school 28
In 1916, under Dean Benedict, an Evening Department was begun.
The faculty which formerly conducted the Cincinnati Y.M.C.A.
Night Law School became the faculty of the Evening Department
of the Cincinnati Law School The requirements for graduation
from the Evening Department with the LL.B. degree were as follows:
"Satisfactory completion of the three years' course in the
Evening Department and a one year course in the Day Depart-
ment to be prescribed by the Trustees, and comprising subjects
not included in the Evening Department/' 29
It was explained that the traditional curriculum of night law
schools omitted some subjects in the growing public law field which
were offered in day law schools. Students who had successfully
completed the three year course in the Evening Department were
admitted to the Bar Examination and it was contemplated that the
program of study in the Day Department could be taken on released
time after the student had begun the practice of law. This proved
to be impractical for some law students in the Evening Department
and they requested that the requirement of a year's study in the Day
Department be revoked. Accordingly, the Trustees adopted a policy
of permitting the fourth year of study to be taken in the Evening
Department but provided that the instruction should be given by
Faculty of the Day Department. 30
Apparently the transfer of the YMCA Night Law School faculty
to the newly established Evening Department of the Cincinnati Law
School was not preceded by a firm merger agreement. In any event,
the YMCA Night Law School continued operations, recruiting a new
faculty. 31 In the second year of operation of the Evening Depart-
ment of the Cincinnati Law School, only ten students enrolled. To
have committed the Law School to four years of instruction for this
small group would have entailed substantial financial loss, which the
UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW 2S9
Law School was unable to bear. Accordingly, the Trustees of the
Law School voted to discontinue enrollment of first year classes in
the Evening Division and thereby phased out the evening law school
program. 3 ?
During World War I, enrollment declined but following the war,
increased and four of the faculty taught full time. A combined
liberal arts and law program was adopted under which the liberal
arts student could devote the senior year to law study- 33
In 1917, the Law School arid the Legal Aid Society initiated a
program under which senior law students, under the supervision of
practicing lawyers, provide legal service to indigent persons. The
program has continued without interruption and now includes
junior as well as senior law students.
In 1920, the building at 21 West Ninth Street was sold and the
Law School was moved into the original McMicken Building located
on Clifton Avenue two blocks west of Vine Street, near the old
streetcar incline. Here classes were conducted until 1925. Professor
Alfred A. Morrison, who enrolled in the Law School in 1924, recalls
with nostalgia "the streetcars going up or down on the incline" and
"the whiff of the hops which emanated so regularly from the brew-
eries that any student who happened to have studied late and to have
hurried off to bed without winding his watch could wind and set it
by the 9:05 a.m. whiff." 34
On October 25, 1925, the present home of the> Law School,
Alphonso Taft Hall, located on the main campus of the University
of Cincinnati, was dedicated. It was most fitting that the building
be named for Alphonso Taft. A generous contribution toward the
cost of construction was made by Alphonso Taft's son, Charles P.
Taft and Mrs. Taft. Alphonso Taft had a life long interest in the
University of Cincinnati and the Law School. He^ served on the
faculty of the Law School in 1866-67 and was later Chairman of the
Board of Directors of the University of Cincinnati. In jpmblic life,
he was an outstanding jurist, Minister to Austria and Russia, and
Secretary of War in Grant's Cabinet. Three of Alphonso Taft's
sons were graduates of the Law School. The principal address at the
dedication exercises was given by one of these, William Howard
Taft, who had served as President of the United States and was then
Chief Justice of the United States.
In the final analysis, the greatness of a law school is determined
by the level at which its graduates have carried their professional
ft**
300 THE LAW IN; SOUTHWESTERN OHIO
lespPMibiHties. Measured by that standard, the Cincinnati, Law
School is a great law school. For example, at thededicationoRffif
Alphonso Taft Hall, prominent alumni present included President
and Chief Justice of the United States William Howard Taft, Vice-
President Charles G. Dawes, Speaker of the House Nicholas Long-
worth, former Speaker of the House "Uncle Joe" Cannon, Chief
Justice of Ohio Carrington T. Marshall, former Chief Justice of the
Ohio Supreme Court Hugh L. Nichols, and other notable graduates.
Other distinguished alumni include Associate Justice of the Supreme
Court of the United States Willis Van Devanter, Speakers of the
House of Representatives Champ Clark and Milton Sayler, United
States Attorney General Judson Harmon, Solicitor General of the
United States Lawrence Maxwell, Secretary of Commerce Charles
Sawyer, and many others who have served as Chief Justices or
Associate Justices of State Supreme Courts, members of the Federal
Judiciary, and Senators, Congressmen and Governors of various
states.
The striking number of distinguished alumni of the UC College
of Law is due in significant part to the fact that for a long time the
Cincinnati Law School was the only Law School west of the Alle-
ghenies. However, the record is in part a reflection of the high
quality of- the program of instruction. This- is evidenced by the
continuingsuccess of alumni of the UCCollege of Law after a large
number of law schools had been established in Ohio and adjoining
States. For example, at the present time two members of the United
States Court of Appeals for the Sixth Circuit, Paul C. Weick and
John W. Peck, four members of the Federal District Court for the
Southern District of Ohio, David S. Porter, Timothy S. Hogan,
Joseph P. Kinneary, and Carl B. Rubin, and Associate Justice of the
Ohio Supreme Court Louis Schneider Jr., are graduates of the UC
College of Law. Over the years, many UC College of Law graduates
have been judges in the local trial courts.
In 1925, Murray Seasongood began his teaching of Municipal
Corporations, a post held for 34 years, retiring in 1959 at the age of
eighty. His "Cases on Municipal Corporations," compiled while
on the UC Faculty, was used in many law schools. He was succeeded
by Charles P. Taft, the third generation of the Tafts to teach in the
Cincinnati Law School.
In 1926, Merton L. Ferson, a gifted teacher, scholar and ad-
ministrator, became Dean of the UC College of Law and provided
UNIVERSITY GF CINCINNATI* COLLEGE OF LAW 301
outstanding leadership for two decades. 35 Ferson had served with
distinction as Dean of the George Washington University Law School
and the university of North Carolina Law School. In his teaching,
Ferson posed hypothetical cases involving a horse named"Pompey"
and a cow named "Violet." To his students Pompey and Violet be-
came real personalities.
Under Ferson, a number of steps were taken to improve the
quality of legal education. In 1937, three years of college work were
required for admission to the College of Law. The curriculum was
broadened. Ferson favored an increase in the time for the law course
from three to four years; however, the recommendation was not
adopted. In 1927, the Cincinnati Law Review was begun. It was
then the only law review published in Ohio. The Review not only
published articles by authorities on law but also provided a medium
for publication of comments and notes oh recent cases written by
law students. Even today the Law Review is the most effective
teaching tool in the Law School. Case clubs were organized to
develop skill in oral argument. One of the clubs was named for
Timothy Walker and the other for William Howard Taft. Ferson
developed (with Stoddard) the first law school aptitude test and
used it in the admissions process at UC. He increased the ratio of
full time to part time teachers and by attracting members from
different parts of the country made the faculty more national in
character. To maintain communication with alumni, the "Bulletin,"
containing news of significant events at the Law School was regularly
sent to the graduates.
In 1928^ Mrs. Edith Harrison Smith endowed at the UC College
of Law a law collection as a memorial to her late husband, Rufus
B.~Smith v Rufus B, Smith was a distinguished alumnus, a member
of the faculty of law, and chairman of the Board of Directors of the
University of Cincinnati. Today the Rufus B. Smith Law Collection
exceeds 67,060 volumes.
On June 9, 1933 the centennial of the Cincinnati Law School
was celebrated. Distinguished alumni convened from all parts of
the country. The major address in the impressive program was
given by Dean Rbscoe Pound of the Harvard Law School.
The great depression of the early thirties had a strong impact
on law. Many new laws intended to restart the stalled economy
were passed and new administrative agencies were created to ex-
ecute these laws. These changes called for a reexamination of the
302 THE LAW IN SOUTHWESTERN OHIO
curriculum and-increasedemphasis orfthe public law. Dean Ferson
and the creative faculty which he had helped to assemble were
equal to this. The student not only was trained in the lawyer's
skills but also, using Ferson's term, developed "social-mindedness."
Dean Ferson appreciated the importance of organizations in
promoting excellence in legal education. He, together with Grauman
Marks — then Chairman of the Legal Education Committee of the
Ohio Bar Association — led the founding of the League of Ohio
Law Schools. Also, he served as the League's first President. This
organization has contributed to the improvement of standards of
legal education among the law schools of Ohio. Ferson served with
distinction as President of the Association of American Law Schools,
which serves a similar function on the national level.
Dean Ferson was sensitive to the relationship between law
schools and the profession of the bar. He was president of the Cin-
cinnati Bar Association. Also he led the establishment of the Cin-
cinnati Law Institutes and Bar Conferences in which outstanding
authorities in the law lectured and judges, lawyers and law teachers
participated. Some of these proceedings were published in the
Cincinnati Law Review The topics selected were timely and im-
portant and the treatment of them was creative.
The UC College of Law, like all other educational institutions
in the country, was greatly affected by World War II. The entry into
the armed forces of young men and women of law school age
drastically reduced enrollment Most members of the full time
faculty took leaves of absence to serve in the armed forces or in
the new Federal agencies created to facilitate the war effort and to
maintain economic stability. Consideration was given to closing
the Law School for the duration of the war. However, the Cin-
cinnati Law School had a record of continuous service through the
Civil War, Spanish-American War and World War L The impor-
tance of maintaining unbroken the Law Schools long record of
continuous service was appreciated. Hence, the educational pro-
gram was continued throughout World War II. In view of the small
number of students enrolled and the desire to maintain the high
quality of the Cincinnati Law Review, publication of the Review
was suspended from 1942 to 1947.
Ferson made a substantial contribution to legal scholarship.
He was one of the "restaters" of the American Law Institute's
"Restatement of Contracts" and did the annotations for the Ohio
UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW 303
section. His "Rational Basis of Contracts" and "Principles of Agency"
are creative approaches to the simplification and clarification of
these complex areas of law* Other members of the faculty pub*
lished important works. Among these was Professor Harold
Shepherd who, while a member of the UC faculty of law, edited
the first edition of his "Cases and Materials on Contracts." At the
age of seventy, Ferson reached the compulsory retirement age at
DC. For him retirement was fifteen more years of teaching and
publication at other law schools.
In 1946, Frank S. Rowley, who had been a Professor at the UC
College of Law for twenty years, became Dean. Professor Rowley
was a fine teacher and compiled a highly practical casebook on
"Secured Transactions." The first article published in the Cincinnati
Law Review is an article by Rowley on the subject of radio broad-
casting. During World War II, Professor Rowley was Procurement
Judge Advocate of the Army. He was cognizant of the place of
public law in society. Faculty recruited during his deanship typically
had experience in practice with administrative agencies as well as
in private law firms.
During World War II, most persons who contemplated study-
ing law had postponed their legal education in order to enter the
armed services. At the end of World War II, this backlog of law
students inundated the law schools throughout the country. It was
deemed in the over-all interest to assist the returning service men
and women to make up part of the time given in the service of their
country. By omitting the usual three months summer vacation and
most holidays, three full semesters of law study were compressed
into each academic year. In this way, the three year law curriculum
was^ completed in two years. In this period, enrollment at the UC
College of Law reached a peak of L 439~students ? and facilities^were
overcrowded. Nevertheless, through diligent effort, the faculty
maintained a course of study of excellent quality.
During Dean Rowley's administration, the Robert S. Marx
Seminars were begun. Through these programs, outstanding
authorities on law and political science are brought to the College
to discourse on timely, significant developments in the law. Origi-
nally admission was by invitation issued to persons selected on the
basis of potential interest. Judge Marx developed at the College of
Law his creative course entitled "Facts." In this course, he taught
students techniques for discovering, preserving and presenting facts
304 THE LAW m SOUTHWESTERN OHIO
-at the pre-litigative"and^litigativelevelsr^The classroom theory was
implemented with clinical sessions in offices of the United States
Attorney, Prosecuting Attorney for Hamilton County, and other
legal offices. Thus, he anticipated by years the present swing of the
pendulum of legal education toward the clinical method;
In 1948, Judge John W: Peck began his Practice Court, in which
Senior law students conducted a complete trial of a case. Judge Peck
held this court until 1968, during much of this period commuting
from Columbus, Ohio; where he served on the Ohio Supreme Court
and as Tax Commissioner.
In 1952, while in the prime of life, Dean Rowley died. His un-
timely passing was a great loss to the College of Law. Those who
studied under him remember his mastery of his subject and his
insistence that students be completely familiar with' the materials
studied. Seldom has a man more completely won the. hearts 'and
respect of his students and faculty.
The greatness of any institution depends in significant part on
a woman who places the institution above all else. At the UC College
of Law, this woman was Nettie Birk. Nettie Birk began serving
the College in 1917. She became Secretary of the Faculty in 1918
and, when the position of Secretary of the College was created in
1947, she was named to it. She was devoted to law students and, did
all in her ability to assist them. She followed the progress of the
alumni with deep interest. Throughout her service, she compiled
scrapbooks which recorded the events at the Law School and the
success of the alumni. She had planned to retire in 1952, after 35
years of service. However, when Dean Rowley died suddenly and
an inexperienced administrator was selected dean, she obeyed the
call of duty two additional years. During World War II, Nettie Birk
originated a newsletter through which her students in the armed
services kept contact with each other. An alumnus somewhere over
there wrote to Nettie Birk: "Keep the Servicemen's News Letter
coming. It is a morale builder of the highest order." At the UC
College of Law, Nettie Birk was alma mater.
Following the death of Dean Rowley, Professor Roscoe L.
Barrow was named Acting Dean in 1952 and Dean in 1953. Prior to
joining the faculty in 1949, he had served in legal positions with
several Federal departments and agencies, being at one time Special
Assistant to the Attorney General of the United States.
Following World War II, enrollment in law schools throughout
UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW 305
the country had reached a new crest due to the return of the service-
men. The rapid entry into the profession of large numbers of law
school graduates eventually created a delay in assimilation of them.
Consequently, enrollment at UC and in law schools throughout the
country declined substantially.
In 1952, the UC Jaw students formed the Student Bar Associa-
tion. Through the Association, the law students govern themselves.
In this way, professional responsibility and leadership are developed.
Also the Association invites judges and lawyers to address the students
and plans student activities.
Also in 1952, an exchange program between students of the
Colleges of Medicine and Law was developed. Medical students
gave expert testimony or attending physician testimony in Practice
Court cases involving medico-legal issues. Law students joined
medical students in the diagnostic clinics at the College of Medicine.
The purpose was to bring about greater understanding and power
of communication between doctors and lawyers in order that both
professions, might better serve the patient-client. The innovation
was reported in Newsweek Magazine for February 2, 1953 and
generated favorable comment in educational journals.
From 1953 through 1954, Dean Barrow, aided by some mem-
bers of the faculty, conducted a study of the laws and administrative
practices throughout the. country relating to epilepsy. The results of
the study were reported in a book, "Epilepsy and the Law," written
by Dean Barrow and Dr. Howard D. Fabing, a member of the
faculty of the College of Medicine and, a world renowned neurol-
ogist. Within a decade, the anachronistic laws described in the
book had been repealedjmd the model laws proposed therein had
been enacted throughout the country.
In 1954, the College of Law began a program of continuing
legal education for practicing lawyers. These courses were of full
semester length but were nob a part of a degree program. The
courses were intended to provide the practicing lawyer with ad-
vanced professional study in areas of law which were new or which
were undergoing substantial change. Courses were presented in
Dayton, Ohio, as well as in Cincinnati. The continuing Jegal educa-
tion program was directed by Professor Frank D. Emerson, the
author of a book on corporation law entitled "Shareholder
Democracy /'
In the fifties, legal education was. criticized by the Profession
306 THELAW^IN-SOUTHWESTERN OHIO
otthe TBar for insufficient emphasis upon development of the law-
yer s skills. Many commentators recommended that law students
be required to serve a clinical period comparable to the internship
served by medical students. The faculty of the College of Law
attempted to meet this criticism by developing a unique program
of applied skills. Since 1917, senior law students had been serving
in the Legal Aid Clinic conducted by the Legal Aid Society. Judge
Marx had created at UC his unique course on "Facts/* The "Case
Club" course provided first year students experience in writing
briefs and arguing appellate cases. The "Practice Court" provided
third year students experience in trying a case. However, to augment
the applied skills program, the faculty increased the hours required
for graduation from 80 to 86, and added a "Legal Writing Seminar,"
in which students draft legal instruments such as the beginning law-
yers must prepare, and a course in "Trial Technique," in which stu-
dents study the more difficult phases of trial work. In 1956, Pro-
fessor Irwin C. Rutter was appointed to supervise the applied skills
program and to integrate it with the substantive theory courses.
He made significant contributions to education in the applied skills,
which other law schools have adopted.
Prior to 1953, the Marx Seminars had been designed for prac-
ticing lawyers and, with rare exception, students were not invited.
In 1953, a second category of Marx programs, the Marx Lectures,
was begun, designed for law students. However, lawyers having a
special interest in the subject matter were invited.
In 1958, A College of Law publication, "Letter to the Alumni"
was begun and served the important function of informing alumni
of significant events at the Law School.
During the biennium 1957-59, the faculty revised the curricu-
lum substantially. One object was to maintain the interest of
students by providing more individualized instruction. Thus in the
third year, the number of seminars was increased. Seminar classes
are limited in size and the emphasis is on research and the writing
of a major paper. Some of the seminars were interdisciplinary in
character, notably Land Utilization and Nuclear Energy Law.
The Librarian, Professor William B. Jeffrey, Jr., reconstructed
the card catalogue for the law collection. He noted that the last
available shelf space had been filled, and that it would be necessary
to postpone substantial acquisitions until a new library building
could be provided.
UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW

On May 9 and 10, 1958, the 125th anniversary of the College of
Law and the centennial of the birth of its outstanding alumnus,
William Howard Taft, were celebrated. The commemoration was
a homecoming for alumni from all parts of the country. The high-
light of the program was an address. by Chief Justice of the united
States Earl Warren. He called for greater emphasis on judicial ad-
ministration in order that the work of the courts might be expedited
and even-handed justice dispensed* The Chief Justice, who received
an honorary degree, was very tolerant of the "Impeach Earl Warren"
sign conspicuously displayed in downtown Cincinnati.
At the Alumni Association Banquet, an outstanding alumnus,
former Secretary of Commerce Charles Sawyer, was the principal
speaker. He warned that the Bill of Rights was being interpreted in
a manner which protected criminals and that the government, in the
process of informing citizens, was aiding Communist Russia.
Speaking of the grand tradition of the Cincinnati Law School, Dean
Barrow concluded, "In our Commemorative Exercises we express
pride in our grand tradition. But we also look to the past as a pro-
logue to a greater future. Let us so serve that, when our Sesqui-
Law School— University of Cincinnati
308 THE LAW JN^SOUTHWESTEHNOHfO
^Centennialis celebrated, those who appraise our work may say that
this too, was a worthy part of the grand tradition/*
Early in.1961, a representative of the Board of Trustees of the
Salmon P. Chase College of Law opened negotiations with the Presi-
dent and Board of Directors of the University of Cincinnati for a
merger of the Chase College with UC. Initially, the President and
Board of Directors of UC were favorably inclined toward a merger.
However, when the subject was broached to the Dean and Faculty
of the UC College of Law, they suggested that the merger might
result in deterioration of the educational program of the College of
Law and recommended that a thorough study be made prior to
reaching a decision;
It was pointed out that the quality law schools having day arid
evening divisions were phasing out their evening divisions and that,
in the complex society of today and for the foreseeable future, the
"rule of law" required training at the highest professional level. Just
as the medical schools, on the basis of the Flexner Report,- long ago
discontinued part time medical education, today the prevailing view
among legal educators is that training for the profession of the law
is a full time job. At the turn, of the century, the Cincinnati Law
School was a day law school and it seemed anachronistic to begin
an evening law school in 1961. Also, the merger in 1916 of the U.C.
College of Law with the Y.M.C.A. Night Law School had proved
unsuccessful More important, to have maintained an evening law
school program at the quality level attained in the day law school
would have entailed much greater cost than the typical night law
school incurred.
To aid in solving the question of whether the two Colleges
of Law should be merged, a representative of the Association of
American Law Schools and a representative of the Airierican Bar
Association were commissioned to make a study. While differing
on the advisability of a merger, these authorities agreed that, if pro-
grams of equal quality were to be maintained in the day and evening
programs, a substantial additional endowment of the evening pro-
gram would have been necessary: The representative of Chase
College was informed of this report. On this note, negotiations
terminated.
"Give me alog hut," said James A. Garfield, "with only a simple
bench, Mark Hopkins on one end and I on the other, and you may
have all the buildings, apparatus and libraries without him." This
UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OR LAW 309
statement appropriately emphasizes the importance of good teach-
ing. The Socratic method, in which King Professor Wilbur R. Lester
at UC is skilled, is essential to strong legal education. However,
legal education of high quality also requires facilities and service
conducive to research and study. Alphonso Taft Hall was planned
when the full time faculty was small, secretarial staff limited, and a
library and one class room for each of the three years in law school
were adequate facilities. The expansion of full time faculty, in-
crease in secretarial service, growth of the book collection, and addi-
tion of seminar and elective courses, rendered Alphonso Taft Hall
inadequate.
The Trustees of the Robert A. Marx Estate, Mr. Samuel Hutten-
bauer, Mr. Howard Kaichen, Mr. Lawrence I. Levi, and Mr. Hugh
White recognized this. Also, they appreciated that because of Judge
Marx's life-long interest in the College of Law, as alumnus, teacher
and benefactor, an improvement of the facilities would be a most
appropriate memorial to Judge Marx. Judge Marx had expressed
to some of the Trustees, the wish that they make a substantial gift
to the College. In academic year 1961-62, The Trustees donated
$450,000 for the construction of .the Robert S. Marx Law Library.
The construction of a new building for the law collection released
space in Alphonso Taft Hall for other essential uses. These improve-
ments enabled law students to prepare more effectively to assume
their professional responsibilities. Professor Charles E. Stevenson,
who was a civil engineer and lawyer, was the faculty chairman for
this improvement.
At the commencement exercises in June 1963, the graduates
for the firsttime received the Juris Doctor degree. Later the degree
was conferred retroactively upon recipients, of the LL.B. degree
who preferred the J.D. degree. Law students are requifedto obtain,
a baccalaureate degree prior to beginning study of law. They spend
three more years in residence to obtain the degree in law. The total
years of higher education required to qualify for the law degree are
seven. A, baccalaureate degree, in law connotes a lower level x>f
education than has in fact been obtained. This tends to downgrade
the profession of the law in the eyes of the public. More recently, the
American Bar Association has recommended that law schools
change the law degree from LL.B. to J.D. and this recommendation
has been adopted widely.
In 1957 students of the College of Law began publication of a
310 THE LA\tlN~SOVTH\VEStERN OHIO
-newspaper, "The Restatement" This medium of communication
has provided an important forum for the dissemination of ideas
regarding legal education. Also, it reports significant events at the
College of Law.
From 1951 to 1964, the Master of Laws degree was offered at
the College of Law. The College did not have a special graduate
law department such as exists in law schools having substantial
enrollment in the program of graduate study. However, the pro-
gram was useful to the occasional law graduate who desired to
spend a fourth year of law study in a special area. In 1964, the
graduate program was terminated because enrollment was in-
creasing and faculty resources had to be conserved for the J.D,
program.
In 1961, Professor Stanley E. Harper, Jr., was appointed Asso-
ciate Dean of the UC College of Law. Prior to his appointment, the
administration had been conducted by a dean without the aid of a
second officer.
On May 6-8, 1965, the Robert S. Marx Law Library was dedi-
cated. The dedicatory exercises were held in conjunction with the
Twenty-Sixth Annual Conference of the Sixth Judicial Circuit of the
United States. In attendance were the Judges of the Federal Courts
in the Sixth Judicial Circuit, representatives from many sister law
schools throughout the United States, and alumni and friends of the
College of Law. The dedicatory address was made by the Chief
Justice of the United States Earl Warren. The Chief Justice was
introduced by Mr. Justice Potter Stewart, then Sixth Circuit Justice.
The theme for the dedicatory events was "Decision Making in a
Free Society." The Chief Justice adopted this theme for his address.
Emphasizing the role of the individual in decision making, he said:
"Each of us has the grave responsibility of decision-making. He also
has the obligation to let the decision be known — through the ballot,
by communicating with his legislative representatives, and by ex-
pressing himself at the community level/*
In 1963, Dean Barrow had announced his resignation as Dean,
effective at the end of the 1964-65 academic year. In 1965, Dr.
Claude R. Sowle was appointed Dean. Dean Sowle had served as
Associate Dean of the Northwestern University School of Law and
had gained national recognition as an authority on Criminal Law. He
was co-editor of a widely used casebook on Criminal Law, "Cases
* and Comments on Criminal Justice," and of a book entitled "A
UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW 311
Concise Explanation of the Illinois Criminal Code/* Also he was
Editor in Chief of the Journal of Criminal Law, Criminology and
Police Science from 1960 to 1965. Dean Sowle was very perceptive
of public relations and possessed a gift for administration. In 1967,
during the illness of Vice President for Academic Affairs Hoke S.
Greene, Dean Sowle exercised the additional role of Acting Vice
President of Academic Affairs at UC.
As a result of the greatly increased office space and book ca-
pacity made possible by completion of the Robert S. Marx Law
Library building the remodeling of Alphonso Taft Hall, and the
national trend of increasing enrollment, the full time faculty was
increased from eleven to sixteen, the College's rate of book acquisi-
tion was doubled, the staff for the Library and secretarial service
for the Faculty were increased substantially, and enrollment reached
300 in the 1968-69 school year. Notwithstanding the significant in-
crease in the size of the student body, admission standards, in terms
of the required scholastic average in pre-law study and the law school
aptitude score, were raised substantially.
Associate Dean Harper, after the first year of Dean Sowle's
administration, returned to full time teaching and Professor Samuel
S. Wilson became Associate Dean.
Dean Sowle's administrative talent was recognized by the
presidential search committees of various universities. In June
1969, after four years of service as Dean, Dr. Sowle resigned to accept
the Presidency of Ohio University at Athens, Ohio. Upon his res-
ignation, Professor Samuel S. Wilson was named Acting Dean and
Professor James L. Kennedy, Jr. was named Associate Dean.
In 1969, the Ohio Supreme Court -issued a rule which permits
law students to practice law under limited conditions and, in 1970,
the College of Law established a Civil and Criminal Practice Clinic,
which utilizes the Court's student practice rule. As space in the
Alphonso Taft Hall and the Robert S. Marx Library was exhausted,
a building at 316 West McMillian Street was rented to house the
Clinic. Here law students, supervised by a Clinical Instructor, pro-
vide representational services to indigents in all phases of civil and
criminal matters, including trial and appeal. The criminal cases
are in the Hamilton County Municipal Court. The civil cases may
be in local courts or before administrative agencies. In addition to
representing clients, the clinical program includes a classroom com-
ponent and a writing requirement. The first Clinical Instructor was
312 _^~ — -"-* THE LAW IN SOUTHWESTERN .OHIO
Professor Thomas E. Murphy., He was assisted in establishing pro-
cedure and policy by Acting Dean- Samuel S. Wilson and Professor
John J. Murphy.
In 1970, two important gifts were made to.supportthe, program
of legal education. The Nippert Chair of Law -was .endowed, with a
gift of $625,000. This chair, occupied by the Dean of the College of
Law, honors two members of the Nippert family who attended* the
College of Law, Judge Alfred K. Nippert (1897), and James G.
Nippert, who was a member of the class of 1924, and who .died in
1923,, following an injury incurred in playing varsity football at UC.
Also, Mr. Joseph L. Meyer, class of 1896, established the "Jacob and
Rosa Meyer Endowment" to support the Law Library of the College
of Law. In memory of the late Mr. Joseph L. Meyer, the Court Room
at the College of Law has been named the "Joseph.L. Meyer Court
Room."
In academic year 1969-70 the unusual phenomenon of campus
unrest spread through the country like an epidemic. Escalation of
the war in Southeast Asia triggered riots at many universities and
some students were killed, notably at Kent State University in Ohio
and Jackson State in Mississippi. The latter events, and the appear-
ance on the campus of outsiders, led to conditions at the University
of Cincinnati constituting a threat to life and property. As the atmo-
sphere was too charged with emotion and fear to permit effective
study and a repetition of the tragedy at Kent State seemed possible,
the Administration recommended and the Board of Directors
ordered the closing of the University.
When the closing occurred, classes at the College of Law, had
been substantially completed. However, it was not possible to give
examinations. The faculty adopted a.policy of giving examinations
later to those students who were required to have taken examinations
in order to be admitted to a Bar Examination or for other purpose.
During 1969-70, a Decanal Selection Committee searched for a
permanent Dean. Acting Dean Wilson requested that he not be
considered for the post. After an extensive search, Dr. Edward A.
Mearns, Jr., was appointed Dean. He had served as Associate Dean
of the University of Virginia School of Law and as Dean* at Long
Island University. Dean Mearns was a consultant on civil rights to
the United States Commission on Civil Rights and the United States
Commissioner of Education. Also, he was Associate Director of the
Association of* American Law Schools' Orientation Program in
UNIVERSITY OF CINCINNATI COLLEGE OF LAW 313
American Law, which assists foreign law students in accommodating
to the study of law in the United States.
Dean Mearns is an ideal Dean for the time. He is very effective
in communicating with students. His administration is personalized,
the conference being used extensively, and invites "input" in decision
making. Dr. Mearns values the importance of long range planning
and is setting new goals for the future service of the College of Law.
Immediate problems which he faces are that the increased enroll-
ment has rendered, the- reader stations in the relatively new Robert
S. Marx Law Library below the standard required by the Association
of American Law Schools and the number of students per faculty
member above the level desired by law schools of highest quality.
In 1971, the Faculty's continuous study of the curriculum led to
a number of modifications. Practically all courses offered in the
second and third years of law study were made elective. The re-
searcti and writing program was extended so as to provide substantial
research and writing programs during each of the three years of law
study. The clinical and field work was expanded. Courses relating
to the protection of the environment, the problems of consumers
and the urban poor, and other areas of concern to present day
America, were added to the curriculum.
At the seventy-fifth anniversary of the Cincinnati* Law School,
in 1908; Dean James Barr Ames of the Harvard Law School observed
that an important function of a law school is "solid contributions by
their professors to the improvement of law." For a partial list of
recent contributions, see Footnote 36.
This is a time of student concern and involvement. College
graduates are turning increasingly to law study and the Profession
of the Law asa forum in which to -contribute to. the solving of the
problems of mankind. Law students today display more social
mindedness than has been exhibited since the great depression of
the thirties. To fill an entering class of 100 students in the fall of 1971,
the College of Law selected from 1,300 applicants. The qualifica-
tions, in terms of undergraduate scholarship and law school aptitude
test scores, are rising. Law students are joining the faculty on com-
mittees for the study of curriculum and other matters of concern to
students. Their views contribute to sound decision making and
improve the quality of legal education.
With a creative faculty making solid contributions to teaching
and the improvement of the law, gifted students involved in the
314 THE LAW IN SOUTHWESTERN^OHIO-
IcoSceniFof society, and the new leadership provided fc>y Dean
Mearns, the UC College of Law in 1971 is taking its place in the
grand tradition of the Cincinnati Law School. May the College of

l This historical note is based principally upon the official records and publica-
tions of the Cincinnati Law School, the Cincinnati College and the UC College of
Law, Professor Reginald C. McGrane's history, "The University of Cincinnati: A
Success Story in Higher Education" (Harper & Row, New York, 1963), the Cincinnati
Alumnus for March 1933, publicizing the celebration of the centennial of the Law
School, the scrapbooks compiled by the late Secretary of the College, Nettie Birk,
and the proceedings and addresses at significant events in the life of the College,
have provided valuable information.
2 No session was conducted during academic year 1841-42 because due to de-
clining enrollment a number of the faculty had resigned and Dean Walker was ill.
Except for this year, the service of the Cincinnati Law School has been continuous
from 1833 to the present.
3 The older law schools are Harvard (1817), Yale (1824) and Virginia (1825).
Other law schools, such as Litchfield, were established prior to 1833. Among these
was Transylvania located at Lexington, Kentucky. However, these schools were
dissolved.
4 A year later, Edmund S. Mansfield was appointed.
5 One of these students was Charles D. Drake, the son of Dr. Daniel Drake.
Charles Drake became United States Senator from Missouri, Chief Justice of the
United States Court of Claims, and wrote a book entitled "Drake on Attachment."
6 During the Presidency of Dr. William H. McGuffey, 1836-1839, he published
the first through the fourth in his long series of "McGuf fey's Eclectic Readers." The
College established what was probably the first professorship of music in the United
States, a testimonial to the musical interest of Cincinnatians. Also, in 1836, it estab-
lished one of the first courses in civil engineering to be offered by any educational
institution in the nation. In 1843, it erected an astronomical observatory. The faculty
of the Medical Department was highly regarded and published medical textbooks
and the Western Journal of Medicine.
7 See "The Thirteenth Annual Catalogue of the Law School of the Cincinnati
College for the Academical Year 1863-64," pages 6 and 7.
8 In his address at the dedication of Alphonso Taft Hall, in 1925, Chief Justice of
the United States William Howard Taft said, "Just last week Mr. Justice Oliver
Wendell Holmes . . . told me that it was Walker's American Law that first gave him
any adequate conception of what law was and what was the profession upon which
he was entering."

1844 to 1849. Their method of instruction emphasized examination upon assigned
textbooks on law. See McGrane, Supra note 1, page 39.

administration was rotated annually among the faculty.

Dear Mr. Kelley;
9*?
I understand that Victor E. Schwartz,, Acting Dean of
our College of Law, has invited you' to be the principal
speaker at the Annual Law Alumni Dinner in March of 1974.
I wanted to let you know the importance of this event,
jit is our University's main vehicle for communicating with
judges and lawyers in. the greater Cincinnati area. ,
I realise that you must be besieged with offers to
speak, but thought it might be of some help to you to know
that the significance of the Annual Law Alumni Dinner goes
beyond the walls of the' Law College and is a matter that is
of interest to the University and the legal community.
With highest regard., I am.
Sincerely, ^rours,

Your letter of November 12th has been rqceived.
In reply to your inquiry/ enclosed is some material
concerning aircraft hijacking which I hope will assist you in
the preparation of your research project ♦ This is the only
information we have for distribution on this topic* It would
not be feasible for me to discuss any training our agents
receive inasmuch as to So so would reveal investigative tech-

THOUGHTS ANDSTBATEGIES OR iSLAMIc'jGUBRRILLA WARFARE
\ > O " is O
"^ THE UNITED STATES •
The divine parameters of Al-Islam a"s a universe of spiritual & intel-
lectual thought and continual religious discipline include community^ & in-
dividual opinions, attitudes and positions on political issues as they
mj.qht directly relate to the interests of the Islamic Jummat, nationally
•md .internationally. Thus, when political issues develop which affect
the Islamic community in part or in whole, the entire Islamic community mu:;v
have involvement towards the resolution of the issue.-
Muslims in America should not consider themselves* an isolated community
from the rest of the Islamic world; we have a special responsibility to
i lah and to our consciences .to come to the defense of Al-Islam in no un-_
certain terms, methods and resources to represent the determined stance of
Al-Islam when America is involved in a political situation or an on-going
cold war that concerns or threatens the safe interests of the Islamic com-
munity.
As well, the rest of the Islamic community, leaders "and 'Arab-Islamic'
countries around the world must also have the knowledge that there are
active Muslims in the -.United States who are willing and able to come to the
defense of Al-Islam when any Dart of the community is threaten; as well,
they must be supportive of our efforts in real "terms. Further, a so-callec
Muslim who does" not understand that our community is a very important
segment of the whole Islamic society is himself or herself a threat and
dangerous element of the community.
. Thus, because Al-Islam is a total way of life , we must be" prepared •
and willincr to defend our lively interests and future with rhetoric, de-
nonstrations, coordinated policies, and physical warfare if necessary. ^Per-
nission is given from the Almighty Allah to engage in warfare in the de^er.p-r
' Df Islam and there occasionally comes a time throughout history by Allah vt.<
. warfare by Muslims in defense of the community as a whole is the most in-
telligent method, both spiritually and politically. J
The United States has threaten the Islamic community with the^use of
i "eir military 'option' in what it considers in the interests o,. the
•unerican people and country. Such threats have been recently targetd at
the Islamic Republic of Iran where, our fellow Muslim brothers ana sis.ers
are active in the Islamic Movement behind the cry "Allah-u-Akbar , God
is Great. And indeed God is Great.
Muslims in America can not any longer tolerate such arrogence by the
3.S. and must now prepare to stand behind of Isiam in warfare in-tue *»."*:.
5tac.es. At the point when the United States initiates military action 35^--
st our community, measures must counter until the wnoie 01 out conunum uy —
safe. One must also remember, that the U.S. is indirectly endangering our
. soiiuiunity by their military & financial support of tne so-caixea »wue
Df israel. " "..11*: .".../,
However. Islamic querrilla warfare in the United States must not be
Planned. Strategies 'must be thorough, e.g., targets must oe cnosen
intalUaentlv and realistically, weapons should be chosen m correlation wi

jet s/per sons in mind, tim£\j, nocturnal encounter ^V****** ?!!'^
! A^l safety, retreat metfcSs, etc. But most xmportifejly, it is not
-ssary for a Muslim to sacrifice himself or herself in such -effort.
•Muslims should not limit themselves to conventional 9«e«±XXa weapons ,
"shotguns, handguns, gasoline bombs, but other weapons whxch can be
lized with a relatively no noise factor, e.g., daggers, razors, short
id steel clubs, etc. With a relatively no-noise factor involved xn
attack? the Servant or Servants of Allah can vacate the locatxon/scene
the encounter unnoticed or inconspicuous.
• Because U.S. foreign policies are made by individuals ?« targets •

Since Zionists are* inf luencial in U.S. policies, the targeting of

Dear Buck*
As you may know* I was a casualty of the limiting of the
Advisory Committee on International Policies. They probably couldn't
figure any way to justify a University Police Chief from 0hio( of all
places) on an "International" commitee.
Since I am \jBry interested in continuing involvment at a
national level* I am reinterating *my request to be considered for same
part of your newly-formed Terrorism Commitee.
I have rnc I uded a document from the Director of our State

TO WHOM IT MAY CONCERN:
Colonel Edward Bridgeman, Chief of Police at the University
of Cincinnati , has been an invaluable resource to me and my
former employer for years. As past Chairman and faculty member
of the Criminal Justice Department, I witnessed Colonel Bridgeman 's
early interest, and development of expertise in the area of terrorism
and our society's response to it.
From a curiosity to; the teaching of both popular seminars
and outstanding quarter-'iength courses, Colonel Bridgeman con-
tinued to build his competence in terrorism subject matter. His
courses became some of the most popular and highly rated the
Criminal Justice Department has ever offered. ' His seminars were
attended by police officers and administrators throughout the
Midwest.
Since I became the Executive Director of the Ohio Peace
Officer Training Council in September 1986, I have found that
Chief Bridgeman has been the architect and instructor of the Ohio
Peace Officer Training Academy's courses in Terrorism, again
popular additions to our curriculum. *
My questions concerning terrorism issues and trends have
always been directed to Ed* Bridgeman because I know he has answers
and insights. Ke should be the same invaluable resource to other
agencies and programs that he has been to me over the years. I
indeed hope his vast knowledge on this subject can be shared more
widely.
We intend to keep using Colonel Bridgeman as our major
resource on terrorism. As a scholar, he will, no doubt, continue
to expand his knowledge on the subject.
Sincerely,
sincerely, / *

Thank you for your kind letter of November 26, 1986,
expressing interest in service to the newly formed IACP's
Committeemen Terrorism. I have always been impressed with your
law enforcement educational and professional experience, but
unfortunately, as you know, your department does not meet the
criteria for membership on the .full Committee on Terrorism.
Enclosed you will find a copy of the proposed
membership list for the newly formed Committee on Terrorism.
This was submitted to Colonel Robert W. Landon, President of the
IACP, on November 12, 1986. The interest exhibited by police
officials, such as yourself, in this Committee has been extremely
high. As you will note from the enclosed list, the Committee
will have representation at senior levels from Federal, state, ^/\
local, arid international agencies, most with significant
experience in counterterrorism and crisis management.
Itri this
Ed, I appreciate your interest in helping out wit „_
new Committee. I intend to recommend to the full Committee orf'
Terrorism that you be considered as a candidate for membership on
the Subcommittee on Terrorism Training. If you have any
S questions concerning the IACP's Committee on Terrorism's work or*
"• goals, please write or call me.
